Default Nice day + New saratoga roof = Pics. (no56k)

Went out to the local ball fields today and snapped some shots. And I just dont know if I like the saratoga sunroof. What do you all think about it ?

That car looks great!! Without the door trim, and with the rounded 968 handles, it looks so much more modern! Wheels don't hurt the looks either!!

I like the roof, unless the brown glass doesn't go with the natural tint of the hatch?

You've got some real talent finding the perfect camera angles on your car. Those photos are top knotch

I think it looks really good, hard to tell though if its too "bronzy" for your silver car. Someone finally learnt how to take pictures - nice man nice!

Why wouldn't you like, at least from the one pic with the top included? I think it looks great and matches the tinted windows! The second gen TT wheels look great too!

The scary thing is, it looks how MOST CARS from the 80's with moonroofs looked! Should have come standard, with a manual lift instead of the silly mechanism we have!

Thanks guys and gals. I may have to bring the top with me to the fest and put it up for sale. I dont know yet though. I will wait 2 more weeks to see if it grows on me.

The roof's fine but what you really need to finish off the general look of the car is a euro rear bumper. The rest of the car looks so clean and smooth, the back end looks unfinished !

Yep, I was thinking the same thing. Very nice shots! However, IMO you need to loose those turbo wheel center caps for some nice painted crests. (I have the turbo caps on my wheels right now too, though. )
